Senate Republicans release health care reform “discussion draft.”

The Better Care Reconciliation Act of 2017 (BCRA) summarizes their plan for repealing and replacing the Affordable Care Act (ACA). The BCRA would, among other things, eliminate many of the ACA taxes but retain the ACA premium tax credits in modified form. The Congressional Budget Office will now score the BCRA, which will include cost estimates and an estimate of how many individuals will likely lose coverage if the plan is passed as is. The Senate expects to vote on the bill before July 4.
